Using the Self-timer
102
When you use the self-timer or bulb and do not look through the
viewfinder, stray light entering the viewfinder can cause the picture to
look dark (underexposure). To prevent this, use the eyepiece cover
(p.33) attached to the camera strap.
During Live View shooting and movie shooting, attaching the
eyepiece cover is unnecessary.
